Nokia and Best Buy employed Mobile Billboard to deliver a value-added SD card product pre-programmed with a catalog of N-Gage games for the user to install and try. No longer limited to a few megabytes of space in phone memory, Nokia was able to use an entire SD card to program an extensive catalog of games that the user could install immediately without having to worry about downloading or data charges. The application auto-ran upon insertion of the card, detected the device model and automatically ran a seamless and easy-to-use interface that allowed users to find, review and install games of their choice. The same scenario can turn a bundled SD card from a sunk cost into an efficient and powerful delivery platform for all types of pre-load content, device setup/support, service promotions and an almost limitless catalog of applications and media.

Nokia and Emusic used Mobile Billboard to turn a standard SD card into an extremely effective promotional tool and delivery platform for the Emusic service and their content.

When connected to the PC, the user is also prompted with a web link on the PC that leads them to the Emusic site and a promotional page where they could sign up for the additional free tracks.
